About Kirkside House
Kirkside House provides outcome-focused residential care for adults with learning disabilities, including people who may have behaviours that challenge and associated complex needs. The home offers a supported living environment where care is centred on the person rather than on a generic service model.
The service forms part of a wider specialist care organisation supporting adults with learning disabilities, autism and mental health needs. Its stated approach keeps the individual at the centre of care, with support intended to promote wellbeing and meaningful outcomes. Families and professionals can use the referral route to explore whether the home’s setting and service match a person’s requirements.

Questions families ask
How much does Kirkside House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Kirkside House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Leeds council paid on average £782 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Kirkside House whether it takes residents funded by Leeds council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
